The only thing about that setup is that slap straps weigh about half that setup and really aren't that expensive. I like to hike so equipment weight is always something to think about for me.

You might be better off with whoopie slings then. I don't care so much about weight, as long as it is worth its weight. Those straps I use do everything, have a lot of length which gives you more hanging options, and are super easy to adjust. I can set it it really quick. I always have other ways to rig things though. My system revolves around multi-use raw materials and I can get really MacGuyver with them. Sometimes though when the trees are closer together, something like the slapstraps is better. I like how I can connect everything together though. And if you are camping out of your trunk, weight doesn't matter much.
 
Slap Straps and Whoopie Slings. WTF is happening to product naming in the outdoor market. "I need some Spanky Rope and Tittie Ties for my hammock."
 
Don't forget some hairybeaners to attach to those tittie ties.
